Welcome to day two of a week of giveaways where I have more than a dozen sponsors with beautiful gifts for you.

Entering is easy, leave a comment on a giveaway post for a chance to win that day's prize. I will leave all the giveaways open for the week through Sunday December 7th then I'll draw all the giveaway winners Monday December 8th and will announce all the winners at once on Tuesday December 9th.

One entry per person please. I'm sorry but due to shipping costs giveaways are open to those with a U.S. address.

Today the subject is clothing--clothing for moms and clothing for teens and if you can get luck to go your way you can walk away with a few gifts for your holiday list.

First, there are Care Bears. Yes, they're back--and coming to get the teen crowd as the 80s are back hipper than ever. For the teen on your list there are Care Bear t-shirts which I'm just guessing that my local teen (otherwise known as Grace) wouldn't mind wearing. I have five--yes five--shirts for five winners.

Second, bamboo is THE thing in textiles. Towels, socks, t-shirts, now bamboo is the thing for environmentally kind fabrics and knits.

Medela makes products for nursing mothers--pumps, pads, bottles, and now camisoles made from bamboo. Why bamboo? Well the nursing camisole is made of a cotton/bamboo blend and "gives comfortable support for moms who want to nurse or pump discreetly on the go. It’s fashionable, with lace trim, thicker straps and added length. And because it’s made from bamboo it is incredibly soft, has natural anti-bacterial properties, as well as the ability to quickly absorb moisture."

So I have a camisole for our sixth winner today, if you have a preference for which of the two items you'd like to win you can mention it in your comment and I'll do my best to accommodate your requests.

I have to admit I'm not feeling the Care Bear love (didn't we escape from the 80s once already?), but my daughter certainly is. She'd love a kid-sized t-shirt, and as an LC I could definitely find a deserving recipient for the Medela tank.

wow what a cute care baear tee and well i just love the care bears i think thay are realy grate for kids and well i'm realy happy that thay are back and well thay are one of the best 80's toys and well thay are clasic and well i hope i win this thanks

Well, our first baby is arriving in about six weeks, and I'd love the nursing tank. It dawned on me that all my Sunday dresses, most of my nightgowns, and several other outfits are not nursing friendly, so I'm going to have to get creative about finding outfits without spending money on new clothes. I had wanted to buy one of those tanks to wear with sweaters and shirts, but they are not inexpensive. Nursing wear, including bras, costs more than regular clothing by quite a bit. Considering most of the designs are a bit drafty, that seems a little strange. =)

Ha ha...I did not escape the 80's but clung tight. I love the Care Bears and they are all the rage with my children too!

As for clothing out of bamboo, with limited imagination, I would love to touch that! Then I would give it to one of my nursing friends, because I will not be nursing again (at least not without a lawsuit to my ob/gyn who promised me that would never happen again :-)

My girls LOVE care bears and although they are still both young, they would love this shirt. My oldest is even nicknamed Care Bear. Also, this is also a great time for the camisole since I just had a baby on Nov. 26! What great prizes!

I myself would wear the Care Bear shirt ~ I adored them growing up ~ and still do! My little sis is currently pregnant, but was busty prior to pregnancy, and I don't think that even the XL would fit her...but I work in a field dominated by women, and someone is always pregnant LOL!

thelastman would love an XXL care bear tee shirt for his fiance who had a little boy named antonio eight weeks ago yesterday. he is a beautiful baby and is getting big. johnpratt@ecologyfund.net thanks you in advance and hopes all have blessed days.
